I am following a HOWTO I found to move my DASD to use LVM on top of RAID1. The instructions assume Intel arch but all goes well until it says to use Grub to write the MBR onto the two partitions with the boot directory on them. Naturally I tried to use zipl but it fails with:
# zipl Using config file '/etc/zipl.conf' Building bootmap in '/boot' Building menu 'menu1' Adding #1: IPL section 'linux' (default) Preparing boot device: 09:00. Error: Could not read master boot record: Reached unexpected end of file where /boot is mounted thus: /dev/md1 ext3 97M 14M 79M 15% /mnt/tmp/boot Should I try to mount the actual partitions under boot sequentially? I am new to RAID and am not sure how to proceed. TIA -Robin -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Robin Atwood.
